Document Summary
Infants perceive many of the relations between sensory systems (multimedia events: recognize visually an object that they have touched previously, detect relations between visual and auditory information. Infants start learning about the world from amodal: seemed to be prewired to do this, difficult when they don"t match - amodal need to make sense with modal to make sense. If monkey moves with monkey sound, they will look at it more: learn more about the monkey when make intermodal presentation, complex perceptual and attentional processes, perceiving objects: Infants master perceptual constancies early: motion, color, texture and aligned edges are used to perceive objects, 4 months have. Size constancy: even when object is far away, remains the same size, shown even in new born: test preference looking same object at different distances- stare at both of them equally because recognize is the same objects.
